What does a red icon next to a field mean in Taleo Connect Client?

Question

While selecting fields for a Candidate Import in Taleo Connect Client, I noticed a small red icon next to a few of the fields. (IE: EmailAddressValidated, Applications,Number)

What does the red sign icon next to a field mean in Taleo Connect Client?

Answer 1

A red circle means this field's properties cannot be changed via Taleo Connect Client.

There are several import field types:

• Search or lookup fields are identified with a magnifying glass icon.
• Key fields are identified with an orange key icon (visible after checking Use the value for search or lookup).
• Non updatable fields are identified with a red circle icon.
• User defined fields (UDFs) are identified with a person icon.

Important Note: While you can't update the field's properties, you can update the value of this field with a TCC import.
